In \u003ci\u003eOutclassed\u003c\/i\u003e, Joan C. Williams explains how to reverse that process by bridging the 'diploma divide', while maintaining core progressive values. She offers college-educated Americans insights into how their values reflect their lives and their lives reflect their privilege. With illuminating stories -from the Portuguese admiral who led that country's COVID response to the lawyer who led the ACLU's gay marriage response (and more)- Williams demonstrates how working-class values reflect working-class lives. Then she explains how the far right connects culturally with the working-class, deftly manipulating racism and masculine anxieties to deflect attention from the ways far-right policies produce the economic conditions disadvantaging the working-class. Whether you are a concerned citizen committed to saving democracy or a politician or social justice warrior in need of messaging advice,\u003ci\u003e Outclassed\u003c\/i\u003e offers concrete guidance on how liberals can forge a multi-racial cross-class coalition capable of delivering on progressive goals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buchserien.de","offers":[{"title":"Neuware","offer_id":53983590121810,"sku":"9781250368966","price":30.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/7002\/3593\/files\/unnamed_0d8bb00a-fcba-465a-b64e-917182d94c61.jpg?v=1783864408","url":"https:\/\/www.buchserien.de\/products\/outclassed","provider":"Buchserien.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
